Next week (Sept. 13-14) PAAVO JÄRVI begins his second season as music director of the CINCINNATI SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA with a Music Hall concert featuring the Grammy-nominated EROICA TRIO -- pianist Emily Nickrenz, violinist Adela Pi,a and cellist Sara Sant'Ambroglio. They're anything but wizened old musicians: The glamorous trio burst onto the Classical music scene with a stellar Carnegie Hall debut in 1997, and they've been raking in the accolades since. Their self-titled first CD was on many Top 10 Classical lists; since then they've released Baroque (nine months on Billboard's Classical chart), an all-Brahms recording, and Pasión, featuring Argentinean, Brazilian and Spanish composers. While they're in town, they'll appear at Joseph-Beth Booksellers on Sept. 12, 6:30-8 p.m., to sign CDs and greet the public. . . .
Latin influences are everywhere these days: If you like music by composers from South America and Cuba, put the upcoming appearance by the LOS ANGELES GUITAR QUARTET on your calendar -- Sept. 17 at Corbett Auditorium at UC's College-Conservatory of Music. Their appearance here, a benefit for WGUC (in conjunction with a national conference for public radio program directors, hosted by WGUC), coincides with the release of their ninth recording, LAGQ Latin -- featuring works by Rodrigo, Mart,n and Tango master Astor Piazzolla, plus arrangements of Bizet's Carmen and Copland's Latin American Sketches and a piece by Sting, "Fragile." Several pieces get their performance debut at the Sept. 17 program. Tickets: 513-241-8282. . . .
On Saturday, the CATACOUSTIC CONSORT presents "The Secret of the Muse," a program of 18th-century French music, at Christ Church Glendale at 7:30 p.m. The concert focuses on the role of women in French society of that time, with a performance by ANNALISA PAPPANO, who plays the pardessus de viole, a soprano version of the viola intended for women to play. She will be joined by RICHARD SUTCLIFFE, another expert on early string instruments, and harpsichordist JACK ASHWORTH. Info: 513-772-3242. . . .
Although the Taft Museum of Art is closed for renovation, they're not taking it easy: Their fall Jazz series is continuing on several Sundays at the Main Public Library, downtown. This Sunday's free program at 2:30 p.m. offers Ragtime and Dixieland favorites featuring BOB POE, banjo; JIM CLARK, piano; and PHIL STRIKELEATHER, bass.
